Bullpadel list the Ionic as a standard fit and recommend your usual size. It is a medium width shoe with a bit more room than the Neuron. If you are between sizes or wear a thick sock, go up a half.
Sizes on this page are UK men's. EU equivalents: UK7 is EU41, UK8 is EU42, UK8.5 is EU42.5, UK9 is EU43, UK9.5 is EU44, UK10 is EU44.5, UK10.5 is EU45, UK11 is EU46.
The Ionic is the shoe Bullpadel put on their young pros, Pablo Cardona, Alex Arroyo and Javier Leal, and it is the sensible buy for most club players: stable, grippy and the most affordable of the three. Bullpadel rate it 4 out of 5 for stability, 3.5 for speed and 2.5 for cushioning. If you want more under the foot or a faster feel, the Neuron is the step up. If you need maximum durability, the Hack Vibram.
- Jacquard mesh upper: Woven technical mesh that breathes well and holds its shape, with heat sealed reinforcements where the foot pushes.
- Hybrid 360 tread: Mixed herringbone geometry and depths for a balance of grip and slide on any court surface.
- Flex Rift: Rubber free channels across the forefoot so the sole bends naturally with the foot.
- Sole Shield: Outsole wrapped up over the sides and toe to protect the scuff zones.
- Lateral Movement channel: Central groove that lets the sole deform in a controlled way on landings.
- Stitch Insole: Strobel stitched EVA insole for an even, cushioned platform.
- Thermosealed: Heat and pressure bonded panels, so fewer seams to rub and less weight.

How can I guarantee next day delivery?
Order any in-stock item before our daily cut-off and we'll dispatch it the same day on a next day delivery service, free of charge. Everything listed as in stock is sitting in our warehouse ready to go, so there's no waiting on suppliers. Orders placed after the cut-off, on weekends or on bank holidays are dispatched the next working day. If you need something for a specific date, message us before ordering and we'll confirm it'll make it in time.
How do I choose the right padel racket for my skill level and playing style?
Start with your level, then your style. As a rough guide: round rackets have a big sweet spot and maximum control, ideal for beginners and defensive players. Teardrop rackets balance power and control, perfect for most intermediate players. Diamond rackets are power-focused with a smaller sweet spot, best for advanced, aggressive players. The quickest way to narrow it down is our Racket Quiz, answer a few questions about your level, style and budget and it'll recommend the best options currently in stock. You can also check out our YouTube channel where we review and test rackets on court, or just message us on WhatsApp and we'll recommend one personally.
